My partner complains non-stop about how close I am with my family
DEAR DEIDRE: MY partner complains non-stop about how close I am with my family. He has a bad relationship with his family and resents how well I get on with mine.
I stopped babysitting my brother’s kids for his sake but he doesn’t want to go on the outings I enjoy with my family.

We invite him but he says no, then makes me feel bad for going while he’s at home.
I’ve said he’s free to go out as much as he wants but he chooses not to. I am due to move in with him soon and I’m scared he will try to stop me seeing my family.
I am 26 and he is 29.

DEIDRE SAYS: You must talk to your partner about this or you risk him become ever more controlling.
He probably needs to be honest with himself about sad feelings from his past.
Ask him to make the effort sometimes to come with you. If he digs in and still refuses to change, be very wary of moving in with him.
